The Wisdom Segment

I
The first American football game was played between two college teams, Princeton and Rutgers, on November 6, 1869. The sport is called gridiron in Canada and the United States and is an offshoot of soccer and rugby that emerged during the 1800s and was professionalized in 1920.

II
It was only during the implementation of the Rugby Union Code that carrying the ball was allowed. During the later part of the 1800s, Walter Camp, the Father of American Football, introduced a new set of rules. Old Walt established the snap and introduced the concept of downs, lines of scrimmage, and 11-player teams.

III
Approximately two million footballs are made annually by The Wilson Sporting Goods Company, based in Ohio, which has been recognized as the NFLs official ball supplier since 1941. Did you know that about 600 cows are needed to make footballs for a whole season?

IV
Despite being a relatively new sport, American football has become wildly popular in the United States. In fact, the Super Bowl regularly ranks as the most-watched sports event in America. The 1958 NFL Championship game boosted gridiron's popularity to such an extent it was dubbed the Greatest Game Ever Played.

V
Most athletes dream of getting into the NFL, not just for love of the game, but also to alleviate their family's poverty. The average salary of an NFL player is $2.1 million; however, due to poor financial management, most retired NFL athletes go bankrupt.

VI
Prime Time Deion Sanders played in the NFL for 14 seasons, and the MLB for nine seasons. No other athlete has ever made a home run in the MLB and scored a touchdown in the NFL in the same week, nor played in both the Super Bowl and the World Series.
